Aspects of the Crucible: Horns Lore

Aspects of the Crucible: Horns Effects

Aspects of the Crucible: Horns is an incantation that conjures a large horn on the caster's shoulder. After a brief delay, the caster charges forward, skewering enemies with the horn. Charging up the incantation will throw humanoid enemies in the air if they are hit.

This incantation is often used alonside other Aspects of the Crucible since all three spells require the same amount of Faith.

How to Use Aspects of the Crucible: Horns

Gap-Closer for PvP Melee Builds

While Aspects of the Crucible: Horns does deal significant damge upon hit, its strength lies in the distance traveled by the caster after releasing the spell. Fully-charged casts cover a large distance, often surprising enemies who are unaware of the incantation.

For melee Faith builds that stack up on poise, Aspects of the Crucible: Horns is the perfect gap-closer when facing foes that need to buff or cast mid-fight. Punish spellcasters or catch enemies while healing with this strong incantation.

Used to Briefly Stun Humanoid Enemies

Fully charged casts of Aspects of the Crucible: Horns will throw humanoid enemies in the air if it hits. In PvP, this sets you up for a good roll catch or buys you enough breathing room to heal up. However, in PvE, the incantation has fewer applications. Even with its amazing stun, being a single-target spell detracts from its utility.

Damage Buffed by Crucible Armor Sets

To increase the damage dealt by your Aspects of the Crucible incantations, obtain and equip either the Crucible Axe Armor set or the Crucible Tree Armor set. Each armor piece increases the damage of your incantations. To maximize the outgoing damage, equip the entire set.
